Allodoxaphobia and The Glow In The Dark Cupcakes

Meet Lisa, a baker with a crippling case of allodoxaphobia—fear of others’ opinions. She’d spent weeks perfecting a new recipe for glow-in-the-dark cupcakes (because who doesn’t need neon snacks?). The big day came to unveil them at the town fair, and she proudly set them on her table. A kid walked by, squinted at the glowing treats, and said, “Cool, but they look like alien boogers.”
